The SPCC plan failed to describe the secondary containment provisions for the above ground piping observed at the facility during the inspection; this piping appears to connect all existing above ground petroleum storage tanks located adjacent to the"paralleling gear building". A facility shall provide appropriate containment and/or diversionary structures or equipment to prevent a discharge. The entire containment system, including walls and floor, must be capable of containing oil and must be constructed so that any discharge from a primary containment system will not escape the containment system before cleanup occurs. Immediately provide adequate secondary containment for all aboveground petroleum storage containers larger than 55 gallons. 613 CFR 112.7(e) Failed to conduct inspections or maintain records for 3 years. Copies of inspection and testing records were not available for review at the time of inspection. Inspections and tests must be conducted in accordance with the written procedures developed in the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan. Records of these inspections and tests must be signed by the appropriate supervisor or inspector and kept on site with the SPCC Plan for a period of three years. Immediately locate a copy of all inspection and testing records, maintain them on site, and submit copies to the EHD. This is a Class II violation. 614 CFR 112.7(f)(1) Failed to train personnel on discharge prevention._ It could not be determined if oil-handling personnel were trained in the contents of the facility's SPCC Plan. At a minimum, oil handling personnel shall be trained in the operation and maintenance of equipment to prevent discharges; discharge procedure protocols; applicable pollution control laws, rules, and regulations; general facility operations; and the contents of the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan. Schedule and conduct discharge prevention briefings for your oil-handling personnel at least once a year to assure adequate understanding of the SPCC Plan for that facility. Such briefings must highlight and describe known discharges or failures, malfunctioning components, and any recently developed precautionary measures. Immediately provide this training to all oil handling personnel and submit a copy of the training log (included in the SPCC plan) to the EHD. This is a Class II violation. 702 CFR 112.8(b)(3), 112.8(b)(4) Failed to design facility drainage system from undiked areas to retain in the facility. The SPCC plan did not provide an adequate description of drainage associated with drainage to"bare soil" noted in Table 4-1: Potential Spills. Drainage systems from undiked areas with a potential for a discharge shall be designed to flow into ponds, lagoons, or catchment basins designed to retain oil or return it to the facility. If the drainage system is not designed this way, then the final discharge of all ditches in the facility shall be equipped with a diversion system that would retain oil at the facility. Immediately provide adequate description and design the facility's drainage systems to comply with this section and amend the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan as necessary, or provide equivalence as allowed by CFR 112.7(a)(2).This is a Class II violation. 717 CFR 112.8(c)(8)(v) Failed to regularly test liquid level sensing devices to ensure proper operation. Procedures and frequency of testing for these devices were not addressed adequately in the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) plan. Liquid level sensing devices must be installed in accordance with CFR 112.8 and shall be regularly tested to ensure proper operation. Furthermore, the SPCC plan did not adequately address the tank integrity testing for the installed Convault Tanks. Immediately update the SPCC plan and conduct all necessary testing of liquid level sensing devices and tank integrity testing, or provide equivalence as allowed by CFR 112.7(a)(2).This is a Class II violation.
